Could a planetary nebula obscure the presence of a black hole/neutron star?

I have a civilization that lives on a planet located inside a nebula (and orbiting a normal, sun-like star).

Would this nebula somehow interfere with/ obscure the sight of a rogue neutron star/ black hole coming their way? I'm hoping the answer is yes, so that by the time they notice it, it's too late.

If not, is there somewhere else I can place the planet that would more convincingly obscure the sight of the intruding black hole/neutron star?
